rt_fill_info which is called for 'route get' requests hardcodes the

What RTM_GETROUTE returns is not the actual route but a description
of the routing decision which is why table id, scope, protocol, and
prefix length are hardcoded. This is indicated by the RTM_F_CLONED
flag. What you propose would break userspace ABI.
Agreed, I don't think we can do this.
Doesn't the table used to come up with the decision matter for IPv4?
ie., hardcoding to MAIN is misleading when there is absolutely no way
the decision comes from that table. IPv6 already returns the table id.
Or is your response that it breaks ABI and hence not going to fix.
